Outer Worlds has no space-based content. Yes, you have a spaceship, but it’s essentially a fast-travel device. One of the locations is a space station, but it’s no different than a large building (e.g. it’s not shaped like a torus or anything interesting like that).
Outer Worlds is a really fun take on the Firefly space western concept, though, as long as you understand all of your activities will take place on worlds/moons with basically the same gravity & atmosphere.
Oh good, now when I search I’ll have to wade through the effluent of AI-produced pablum to find an actual human journalism product.
I feel like there should be a line of intention. The artist described in the article was essentially racist by ignorance. She didn’t really know any Black folks, and fetishized them from afar. Doesn’t excuse her offense entirely, but perhaps ignorance mitigates her offense somewhat.
I was pleasantly surprised that Professor Appiah’s take was so nuanced.
Haberdashers rejoice!
Research has shown that adolescents exhibit higher levels of open-earedness
I feel like this reasoning is a bit fallacious. By definition, ALL music is new when you’re young.
Sure, as a guy in my 50s, my typical shuffle playlist has like 30% of songs on it from when I was a teen, and another 30% or so from ages 20-45. But that’s because my musical tastes have grown somewhat steadily, but I haven’t stopped listening to stuff I used to like either. By simple statistics, the “variance” in my music selections has to go down over time, since I’m not discarding old music from my collection. Some kind of “regression to the musical mean” has to happen as you add more music without removing old music.
Remember when Substack, the home of many excellent journalists, started to defend fascist and white supremacist content on their platform?
Oh, wait, that’s happening right now.
\3. Asserting that their IT system is a “separate legal entity” and that they are not responsible for the accuracy of the system. They are eating legal loco weed.
I know I’m lucky – I’m in a senior position in my career, so it’s likely I’ll find something new for the same or similar salary.
Still, it was completely unprovoked. I had nothing but glowing performance reviews, nothing like an HR writeup or anything.
I’m to be dismissed from my job Jan 3.
I guess I have prospects. Still, it’s a hell of a kick in the teeth, I’ve never been involuntarily terminated from a job in my entire life.
Plenty of decent country before the 1990s. Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Charley Pride, Ray Charles, the Statler Brothers, Mel Tillis, Roy Clark, John Denver, Willie Nelson. Later country artists with pop sensibilities like Kenny Rogers, Garth Brooks, Shania Twain, Reba McIntire.
I’d argue that Roy Clark ranks as one of the most talented American guitarists/banjoists of the 20th century, easily in the same class as Jimi Hendrix or Prince.
Today, look for specific types of country music (e.g. Bluegrass) to find more authentic stuff, or just bite the bullet and listen to stuff with different genre labels like “Americana” and “Folk”. A lot of good modern country music ends up in those genre classifications because the marketers can’t figure out how to fit it into the stadium country ecosystem.
Sure, I guess that’s a… very long term?.. solution to the OP’s problem.
I’d like a citation on the funding from Iran. Iran is mostly Shi’ite, and doesn’t generally get involved in Arab or Sunni affairs. And this article from 2021 (prior to the current conflict) points out that the bulk of Hamas funding comes from Qatar and Turkey, respectively.
FPTP
Can you explain in more detail? I’m unclear on what First Past the Post voting has to do with the OP’s concerns.
Neither is the capacity high enough to prevent the outsized influence of advertising money, that’s my point.
Presently I don’t pay for journalism
So the answer to, “Do you pay for journalism?” is, “no”.
It’s great that you have free, ad-supported news that you enjoy. But complaints about “the outsized influence of ad-money” seem pretty hypocritical when you choose not to pay.
(I realize you were not the original commenter complaining about the influence of ad money, but you picked up the ball so I’m responding to you.)
It’s no different than a NatGeo or newspaper sub
Well, that’s the problem, isn’t it? Nat Geo stopped publishing in June and fired all its regular staff. Newspapers have been in consolidation and contraction for decades, with no sign of recovery.
The advantage of subs is that not everyone needs to pay
The disadvantage is that not enough will pay.
Do you pay for journalism?
There’s one local news source that’s free
It probably costs something to produce, and it’s probably beholden to whoever pays its wages.
How do you pay for journalism?
It’s not “inexplicable”.
DIMM mounting brackets introduce significant limitations to maximum bandwidth. SOC RAM offers huge benefits in bandwidth improvement and latency reduction. Memory bandwidth on the M2 Max is 400GB/second, compared to a max of 64GB/sec for DDR5 DIMMs.
It may not be optimizing for the compute problem that you have, and that’s fine. But it’s definitely optimizing for compute problems that Apple believes to be high priority for its customers.
